Package: debian-installer Version: 20151024 In commit cb01da86 ("Add usb-serial-modules to armel images"), Samuel Thibault added usb-serial-modules to various armel images.
It was added to pkg-lists/netboot/armel.cfg, which means it will be included in all netboot images, including network-console, which depends on netboot. It was also added to pkg-lists/netboot/network-console/armel.cfg explicitly, in a block excluding various udebs with the comment: # Exclude framebuffer related modules that are listed in netboot/armel.cfg I wonder if the line in pkg-lists/netboot/network-console/armel.cfg should REMOVE usb-serial-modules rather than ADD it. I'm not sure when usb-serial-modules is useful but I assume it's related to Braille devices. Since network-console installations are done via SSH, I believe it doesn't make sense to include that module there. Can you comment? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/
